Of course, Thor sees this strange reaction of Lin Rui. Just as he is about to ask Lin Rui aloud what happened, the empty space around Lin Rui shimmered and a person suddenly appeared out of thin air next to him, a person Thor is too familiar with.
“Loki! What are you doing here? What did you do to Jackson?” Thor asked in a surprised voice when he saw someone suddenly appearing in front of him.
That’s right, the man who suddenly appeared was the god of lies, the second prince of Asgard and the younger brother who grew up with Thor in Asgard: Loki. Loki, who suddenly appears in front of Thor, is no longer dressed up in Asgard style cloths, but in a refined suit available on earth, looking very smart.
Loki did not answer Thor’s question and he looked at Thor up and down.
“Is that how you treat your life in exile? Falling in love with a little earthling and be the librarian in this little library?” Loki looks at Thor and said sarcastically. But there was an unexpected sense of frustration in those words and Thor has no idea what Loki meant.
“What does it matter to you how I live my life?! Also, what did you do to Jackson? Hurry up and let him go!” Thor obviously didn’t hear the meaning in Loki’s words but felt that his brother was looking for opportunities to hurt him again and he ordered Loki to let Jackson go. He seems to have forgotten that he is now a mortal, and if Loki wants to do something to him, Thor could do nothing against him.
“Don’t worry, it’s just a little magic that won’t do much harm to your little friend, Eh?” Loki explains lazily seeing Thor angry.
In Loki’s opinion, except for some special beings such as Ancient One, all other beings on earth are like worms to him. He is god and supreme to these earthlings. However, as Loki finishes his sentence, his otherwise flat expression is taken aback and he turns to look at the motionless Lin Rui beside him.
Seeing Loki’s movements, Thor also looks worried at Lin Rui. He knows that Loki’s magic power is very strong and he is the best in the whole Asgard. If anything happened to Lin Rui, he would feel really feel guilty.
Card!
When Loki and Thor both looked at Lin Rui, a sudden sound came from the wooden table behind Lin Rui, and a crack quickly spread from the place where Lin Rui was leaning to the entire wooden table.
Call!
Seeing that the wooden table was completely broken because of the numerous cracks that suddenly appeared, Lin Rui, who had been fixed in place, took a step forward like a drowning man grasping at a straw. After Lin Rui took that step, the wooden table behind him broke into pieces in a second.
“Whoop !! Taking a step, Lin Rui instantly recovered, then stood with his legs half bent and gasping for air.
The ten-second time just now was the most terrifying ten seconds that Lin Rui has experienced in his life. Before Loki appeared, Lin Rui suddenly feels a movement coming from the Guardian Amulet in his pocket. Before Lin Rui can figure out what is causing this movement, the guardian amulet suddenly breaks, and his whole mind and body were locked in place.
Although he was still awake in his sea of consciousness, Lin Rui could no longer sense the situation outside. Lin Rui was almost frightened by this sudden situation, and then he broke through the mysterious power that trapped his consciousness. In the end, Lin Rui’s mental strength was almost exhausted before he finally broke through that layer of strength, and finally made his consciousness return to his body and was able to perceive the outside world again.
However, after breaking through the blockade of his consciousness, his body still had no recovery power. The power just now had not only confined his consciousness, but also his body. Therefore, while listening to the dialogue between Loki and Thor, Lin Rui tries to mobilize his strength to break through the shackles that were binding his body. In the end, it took him almost 10 seconds to break free, but he also consumed nearly 90% of his internal energy. That’s why he looks so tired and weak.
However, what shocked Lin Rui most was not the horror he had just experienced, but the man standing next to him, Loki. In Marvel movies, Loki is a villain. However, the strength of Thor and Loki is greatly reduced in the movies, which makes people feel that they are not very strong, which is not the truth at all.
But after what just happened, Lin Rui can tell everyone responsibly that Loki is a super-powerful person or god. Just a magic trick from him can make him unable to move for more than ten seconds, which is not something he imagined! In the face of such a god who is far superior to himself and looks strange and unfamiliar, Lin Rui does not know what he will experience next. This is what Lin Rui is afraid of now.
“Jackson, are you okay!?” Seeing that Lin Rui’s face was pale and he was panting, Thor quickly reached out and helped him.
“Whew! It’s nothing, I am just feeling a bit week.” Lin Rui put his hand on Thor’s shoulder. Lin Rui tried to make his tone sound calmer. He can’t arouse the dissatisfaction of those around him.
Although Thor is Loki’s brother, Loki should not be Thor’s opponent under normal circumstances, but it is not normal circumstances right now! If Loki wanted to take a shot at Lin Rui, Thor, who had lost his power, would be able to do nothing. Therefore, it is better for him to admit defeat for the time being, and it will not be too late for him to get back at Loki after his strength increases. Lin Rui still doesn’t know if Loki can attack people at random on the earth but if he does do that, the Ancient One will not let him go.
“I didn’t expect your little friend to be able to do this. He broke through my magic so quickly.” Loki didn’t notice Lin Rui just now and treated him as if he were a normal person, but after Lin Rui broke free from his magic, Loki noticed that he was different from ordinary people.
“Loki, this is not Asgard, are you going to cause unnecessary trouble?” Holding Lin Rui, Thor stared at Loki and said. Listening to his word, Thor seemed to know about Ancient One.
Because Lin Rui did not control his power when he broke away from Loki magic and broke through the imprisonment broke, the force rushed out and shattered the wooden table, so now they have caught the attention of the people around them. Thor didn’t want to make things big here either. Loki patted his hands and left after he got things done. In the end, the mess was to be cleaned up by himself.
“Trouble, what trouble can I cause? But since you don’t want to talk to me here, I’d better meet your little girlfriend first. Since your little friend is not simple, maybe your girlfriend is not as common as I had thought before. Haha …… ” Loki, hearing a slight warning from Thor, who is also aware of the situation around him, says that it doesn’t matter. Then he simply snapped his fingers and disappeared before Thor and Lin Rui.
“Damn it!” Thor whispered as Loki disappeared before his eyes. If he still had his powers, he would have hit him with his hammer as Loki wouldn’t really die anyway.
“Jackson, sit here for a while, and I’ll explain it to the others.” Seeing that someone is already coming this way, Thor places Lin Rui on the still intact chair and goes out to explain to the other librarian in the library.
“Hoo ~ Is this Loki’s powers?! There is no way for me to resist it!” Looking at Thor’s clumsy explanation with the administrators in front, Lin Rui sat in the back and thought.
Because Lin Rui has been living in this world for so many years since he knew it was the real Marvel World. By virtue of the system, Lin Rui also plays a significant role in various events. Even against a fully armed Tony or Captain America and Peter, Lin Rui, who has grown up to the present day can fight against them so he started to feels a little complacent.
The experience of meeting Loki today completely reminds Lin Rui that Marvel World is far more dangerous than what he is experiencing now. Loki alone can render Lin Rui helpless. How can he protect his loved ones and live well in this world? It can be said that the appearance of Loki gives Lin Rui, who has not had much purpose, a vague goal in his mind for the first time, that is, to become stronger and stronger than anyone else!
Kakaka ~
Thinking to himself, Lin Rui’s hands clenched unconsciously, and there was a crisp sound between his bone joints.
“Let’s go, Loki must have gone to Jane, we can’t let Loki do anything!” A few minutes later, Thor finally comes back and looks at Lin Rui sitting on the chair and says with concern.
“Well, let’s go.” With a yes, Lin Rui calmly rises from his chair. Now Lin Rui seems to have lost his initial fear, and his whole body seems to have some momentum changes.
“Well? Jackson, you …” Looking at the young man in front of him, Thor seems to see something different about him. However, after a few careful observations, Thor still can’t find any difference, so he shakes his head. Thor has already gone out at a quick pace as he doesn’t want Loki to do anything to Jane. Lin Rui, of course, follows.
